Grey Aliens from Zeta Reticuli

The name “Greys” represents an accepted style of humanoid-like, allegedly intelligent extraterrestrial being. Becoming nearly synonymous with “alien” during the late 70’s to early 80’s and often used by ufologists and skeptics alike, the term Greys is generally suggested when discussing any extraterrestrial being between 3 and 5 feet tall, with a slender frame and grey complexion. These Greys are also described as having large, bulbous, black eyes, two small tears in the skin for a nose and a slit slightly above an exaggeratedly pointed chin representing the mouth. Their heads, disproportionate to the lithe stature of their bodies, are sometimes described as having patterned features such as ridges of bone framing the eyes or folds of what is assumed to be skin along the areas of the sides of the head just above the jaw which may be considered ears. Some Greys have been described as having more distinct human features such as wispy or thin hair, eye lids and more pronounced lips and ears. These particular aliens or Greys are commonly assumed to be the hybrid offspring stemming from the successful mating of an alien Grey with abductees thus giving these beings a more humanized appearance. These creatures denote a human quality both in physical appearance and, as sometimes reported, emotionally as well.

Where do they come from?

The exact origin of the Greys is of great curiosity with the overall consensus being that they come from the Zeta Reticuli. Readily visible from Earth, the Zeta Reticuli is approximately 39 light years away and is situated in the Reticulum constellation. This hypothesis, first suggested by school teacher Marjory Fish in 1968, is the now widely accepted theory of the origins of the Greys. Although widely accepted as coming from an actual planetary source, some believe that Greys could also be beings sent from mankind’s future to dissuade the human race from self destruction. Although not as widely reported or studied, this theory as to where Greys may come from is also prevalent among alien enthusiasts.

Analysis:

From the recordings of the Betty and Barney Hill incident and their landmark abduction case of 1961, the Hills depicted alien creatures with the above described features as the beings responsible for their ordeal. From these descriptions given while under hypnosis with therapist Dr. Benjamin Simon, the Hills believed themselves to have been abducted and given physical examination by Greys. It is understood that under the psycho-social sense, alien abduction claims attributed to Greys can be brought on by instances of subconscious past abuse or trauma done to the victim. The victim, unable or subconsciously unwilling to recall such abuse, makes a new reality citing abuse from human-like creatures as an explanation for this trauma. In the case of Whitley Strieber, a writer who claimed abduction in 1985, his claims could be attributed to imagination or profit gained by his publishing a book on his experience. However, abductees with no prior history of abuse or deceptive nature have been noted and lend to the support for many abduction claims.

Greys and their UFO’s

Although usually attributed with UFO or spacecraft sightings of varied degrees, Greys are more often reported with the cigar-shaped UFO’s than with other disk, egg or cloud shaped types of spacecraft. However, even the most reported sighting instances can be explained away by simple logic or fact checking into local events surrounding those same dates and times. Many sightings are attributed, upon further examination, to simple atmospheric conditions, local airport or military practices or other means of deliberate deceptive acts perpetrated by hoax.
